Deviantart user nik255 is back with an interesting tablet concept, the Microsoft Surface Mini, that has been rumored for a while now. In spite of the fact that the 7 inch and 8 inch tablets are very popular, Microsoft only launched 10 inch Surface 2 units…

Rumors say that the Surface Mini will come in 2014 and it may end up looking like the one in the images here. This device is based on the Bay Trail-T platform, that would make sense and it invlolves a quad core setup with 22 nm and 2W CPU. There’s Intel HD graphics on board, 4 GB of RAM, a 7.5 inch IPS LCD screen with a 1080 x 1440 pixel resolution and magnesium case.

The product weighs 349 grams and it comes with 2 full size USB 3.0 ports, a mini display port, WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 and 4G LTE. There’s also NFC, a GPS, Glonass and two cameras, one at the front and one at the back. Finally, the Surface Mini tablet packs a 44 Wh battery and comes in 64, 128 or 256 GB versions.

The designer bundled here a magnetic digital ink stylus with very precise input and I suspect some cool note taking software is bundled as well. What do you think of this 7 inch Surface?
